Does anyone have any pointers on how to build a rear 2 inch lift out of 1/4" flatbar? I tried the search, but i didn't get anything good.

 

Thanks!

John

I have a set similar to the pic, $20 they are yours

 

Thanks, but i really don't have the 20 bucks to buy it, and my car is up in the air waiting for the lift and struts, so i wouldn't be able to get to bellingham.

 

Thanks though!

John

by the way, what are the dimensions of the pieces? and what is the size of the holes?

If Markus56 doesn't want it, I'll buy it for $20. It would save me the trouble of building a 2" lift myself.

I've been thinking about it, and I will take your offer. What is included in said $20 kit?

John,

 

Those are two pieces of steel flatbar. Anything 1" to nearly 2" wide will work, and somewhere around a 1/4" thick would be ideal. If you have a drill, a hacksaw, and a vise; you can knock them out in twenty minutes. You just need to drill holes about 2 1/2" to 3" apart while the flatbar is still straight, and then bend it in the middle to about 15 degrees. None of this stuff is incredibly exact, so just try to get everything even. Drill the holes to the same size as the ones in the struts. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 9/16". Then install the strut turned 180 degrees around.

 

It's simple man.

Thanks Will!
